Hi Vince, Eva

I had a quick look and the problem seems to be that there is no inventory
information in the retail facility, this means that when an order (sale) is
processed no inventory is issued and when the order is returned there is no
inventory information to receive the items against, so the return status
stalls at accepted rather than proceeding to returned.  This seems strange
because you can manually receive the return without any problems as the
system just creates a new inventory item and receives against it.

If you create inventory items for your retail facility most of the problems
should go away.  I'm not sure that cash/check refunds have been implemented
in pos but at the very least any cc transactions should be refunded.

Regards
Scott
